[leahrp]

hello i am hoping to to get some help and see im on the right track on this question below


Research and report on the specific risks to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children who are at risk of underweight and nutrition deficiencies. (approximately 1,000 words)?


awnser-


Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people continue to suffer the worst diet-related health of all population groups in Australia.
the nutrition among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people highlights the importance of nutrition promotion and the prevention of diet-related disease

in very few Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children consumed adequate amounts of healthy foods consistent with recommendations of the Australian Dietary Guidelines. Further more over two-fifths (41 per cent) of total daily energy reported by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people came from unhealthy foods and drinks classified as discretionary



can someone help me in more words please
